Yesterday morning we joined a few other families with the Moscow Parent Toddler Cooperative on a field trip to the fire station. Maggie was a little unsure about Fire Fighter Joe and his really big trucks, but she did climb into one all by herself! We learned that the Moscow fire department is a volunteer department, with 100 volunteers, saving the city a considerable amount of money. The Fire department also houses volunteer U of I students providing very nice room and board. The students work one day out of five---what a great option for students!
Here's some pictures from the field trip...

She did it! She climbed into a big fire truck!
Maggie's friend, Morgan, graciously volunteered to try on fire fighter Joe's jacket and helmet.
